Get Creative With Garden Sculpture USA

By Anthony McDonald


It is important to get out from in front of a television set, move the body, and express the mind. A person can accomplish all three of these things by creating their own garden sculpture USA. In fact, some people have turned off their TV, turned on their creativity, and turned their hobby into their life work.

Old barn finds are an excellent source of materials for any sort of yard art, but especially for those who prefer metal as their medium. Buy a second-hand welder, and get to tearing down and recreating. Not only does this make good use of old metal, but these pieces of art are easily moved, and the pieces will sometimes last for the life of the artist who made it.

Scrap metals artwork is a great way to show off an antique collection. Most everyone has at least a few old rakes, blades, or farm equipment laying around, and these can be modified to resemble animals, fish, insects, or geometric patterns. Sun catchers bought at the store are nice, but they fail to make a statement about the person living behind the yard art.

Art should always be a family affair, and a love of creation starts at home. Parents who encourage their children to be creative, and display their creativity, raise children who never lose a sense of the magic of life. Those who do not question the quality or value of their creative pursuits grow to have a greater overall sense of their place in the world.

Many of us have found a gift in the ground that came from some garden of old. It seems a shame that one might lose a piece of yard art, but the finder is always intrigued by a mysterious new piece of art created in the past. Gifts given from one generation of gardener to the next in this way often take pride of place in the yard of an outdoor artist.

Our current culture of indoor living has left us fat, lethargic, and unmotivated toward creative expression. Yards have become a forgotten zone, and we tend to think of them as a chore rather than a place of gathering. Anyone who grows food and flowers is different, and those who scatter art throughout the yard are in a class all their own.

In fact, many might regard boring yards as meaning boring people live there, and often they are right. Our yards, like our cars and our homes, should be a testament to the people inside. Americans have gotten too used to staring at the talking box in the living room, and they have forgotten to show the world how special we are through our independent and creative nature.

In fact, more and more people have abandoned their television sets entirely. Families are outside growing food and flowers, cutting metal and stacking stone. At this point in our cultural decline, perhaps the television set can be turned into a sun catcher, and the old recliner can become overgrown with wildflowers in the yard.
